GG Allin
Kevin Michael "GG" Allin (born Jesus Christ Allin; August 29, 1956 – June 28, 1993) was an American punk rock musician who performed and recorded with many groups during his career. Allin was best known for his controversial live performances, which often featured transgressive acts, including self-mutilation, defecating on stage, and assaulting audience members, for which he was arrested and imprisoned on multiple occasions. AllMusic called him "the most spectacular degenerate in rock n' roll history", while G4TV's ''That's Tough'' labelled him the "toughest rock star in the world". Known more for his notorious stage antics than for his music, Allin recorded prolifically, not only in the punk rock genre, but also in spoken word, country, and more traditional-style rock. His lyrics often expressed themes of violence and misanthropy. Allin's music was often poorly recorded and produced, given limited distribution, and met with mostly negative reviews from critics, although he ...

Allin Braund
Allin Braund (1915–2004) was an artist of exceptional, polymathic talent. He was able to work with equal merit in the mediums of oil, watercolour, lithography, stained glass, relief sculpture & sculpture (including the then cutting-edge use of fibre-glass). His influence on post 1945 art and architecture in Britain and around the world is profound. Yet, unlike his fellow '54 Venice Biennale collaborators; Lucian Freud, Henry Moore and Francis Bacon his works did not start to fully realise similar, commercial acknowledgement until circa 2000. Braund was born in Devon and educated at Hornsey College of Art. Like many of his generation, he saw active service in the Second World War. He was one of Churchill's Desert Rats (a precursor of The S.A.S) group of British soldiers who helped defeat the Germans in North Africa during World War II. They were highlighted for a hard-fought, three-month campaign against the more-experienced German Afrika Korps, led Rommel (“The Desert Fox”) ...
